Given that this community has generally positive view of Stalin, I’m curious what he did that my comrades find irredeemable or out of line. Since it’s easy to criticize the Soviet Union from a western perspective, bonus points if you explain how this was detrimental to the development of socialism and/or communism.
Really only thing i could find is the resettlement of Koreans. Other ones were either justified by history or (in case they weren’t) plausible at the time, but Korean one was really unnecessary. Idk who exactly decided that though and how much his personal fault was in this, the period was hectic.
It wasn’t by any means detrimental to development of socialism though, which was later also proven by history of Korea.
